The Earth Is Hungry
En este artículo, muestro cómo los mineros desde los andes en la Amazonía peruana se enfrentan a la disponibilidad de su vida y trabajo. Describo cómo los mineros forjan un término medio, o espacio donde los mundos amerindios se adaptan a situaciones políticas cambiantes y donde existen formas divergentes de experimentar el mundo simultáneamente. Ilumino las particularidades del extractivismo en la región de Madre de Dios en Perú y abordo un prob…
Climate change, uncertainty and allostatic load
CONTEXT: Humans constantly respond to environmental stressors challenging their somatic stability. Allostasis, an evolved neuroendocrine/physiological stressor response system, is our main pathway for doing so. Effective allostasis returns somatic systems to their current optima; over a lifetime of stressor responses, related systems fail, effectiveness declines, and physiological dysregulation (i.e. allostatic load) increases. Global Climate Cha…
A pretext for plunder? Environmental change and state-led redevelopment in the Peruvian Amazon
In 2014, the Peruvian federal government declared the low-income neighbourhood of Pueblo Libre de Belén in the Amazonian city of Iquitos to be in a state of emergency.

While this multimodal approach to fieldwork has increasingly become the norm in anthropology and other related disciplines, there is little discussion of the dynamism between various computer/smartphone-mediated forms of inquiry and how digital and face-to-face “classical” ethnographic methods …
